CURRENT MISSION

Upwards and onwards..

ABOUT ME

I'm of Italian heritage but was born and bred in Melbourne, Australia. I've been with my girlfriend Aylsa for 12 years. She's of Scottish descent but was born in South Australia. If we have kids they'll be "Italics".
We've been living/working in Japan for the last two and a half years and saving so that we could then travel to Europe. Our respective motherlands are calling us to pay a visit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Only just entered this fine community and we're both enjoying meeting people and sharing stories. We've just started our world trip but eventually plan to head back to Melbourne, Australia. Would love to reciprocate on our return.

Interests

Slightly obsessive about film, music, reading, trying new foods, surveying new cultures, meeting stimulating people and wandering aimlessly around new found places.

Music, Movies, and Books

As so fervently put by the late, great Frank Zappa: "Music is THE BEST".
For the most part I listen to avant-garde, experimental, electronic, Euro film soundtracks, 60's pop/psychedelia, bird song.. etc. but am always open to anything else that comes my way.

As for film and literature, well, usually anything that's stood the test of time.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went out drinking with the Yakuza in Japan (by sheer accident) and ended up having one of the craziest/scariest nights of my life. Have photos to prove it too.

China, Estonia, Finland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Mongolia, Poland, Russian Federation, South Korea, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
